Say the Words

I need to hear you say the words Silence simply will not do Don't make me read your lips Let me hear your voice Spare not the sound Of beauty and of love I need to hear you say the words Your beauty is before me Yet, still, I crave your voice A look and a thought Is not enough Let me hear You say It I need to hear your say the words I know your heart and your touch Like fire under my skin Yet nothing compares To hearing you Say the words I love you
